It' on Flers Agglo

Flers Agglo

Flers, France

Description

The proposed mission takes place in the town of Flers (Orne, Normandy) and the Flers Agglomeration. The area is rural and located 13 hours by train from Paris and 50 minutes by car from Caen. Two European volunteers are expected. They will work in two structures: - The “Résidence Jeunes du Gros Chêne” is a Young Workers' Hostel with 71 places for transitional social accommodation for young people aged between 16 and 30 who are on a path to professional integration. In addition to the accommodation, the team offers social support and group activities for the hostel users. - The Jules Verne Space is a place for listening and providing information for 15-25 year olds. Several services are available to support young people in their projects (orientation, jobs, housing, good ideas for going out, etc.). Various activities are offered: individual reception, group activities, and event organization. Information by clicking on the following document : https://www.grosfichiers.com/z7wiftr

Accommodation, food and transport arrangements

The 2 European volunteers hosted by Flers Agglo will be accommodated in a house (with one floor and without a courtyard) located at 52 rue de la République in Flers, right in the city centre. It consists of a kitchen, a living/dining room, a bathroom, two toilets and 3 bedrooms. The 2 volunteers will therefore be sharing a room. The furnishings : the house is equipped with a gas cooker, a microwave, a coffee machine, a kettle and all the necessary dishies. In the town of Flers, there are two bus lines that allow people to travel from Monday to Saturday.

Training during the activity

During the mission, volunteers will have access to a platform to learn French. They will also participate in two seminars. This is a 4-day training course that brings together other volunteers to further develop the mobility experience. Each volunteer will be accompanied by a tutor who will support them in their missions and daily life.

Participant profile

Volunteers must be between 18 and 30 years old. It is imperative that volunteers have a desire to reach out to other young people in the area. Volunteers must be eager to develop projects with diverse audiences and be willing to lead groups of children and young people.
